i disagree on angela merkel. she has played her hand in a politically adept way. if you think of the political constraints she faces in germany, the cultural ones and the political ones. she has done a terrific job of bringing germany along. second thing i very much agree with jim on his crucial u.s.. about how 0 europe right now interestingly is playing into the u.s. election. i think sort of consensus -- the exogenous thanks that could lose the election for him is something happening with iran or the world economy and falling apart. in real way, you can say what happens in berlin may have a greater impact on the u.s. election. if you are interested in him and you can, follow him on twitter. he is great on twitter. really fun to follow and -- without a big time commitment to see what is going on in france. so a few points here. some very big questions and i will not try to give you the ultimate answer. i am going to make four points to think about. the central thing this crisis has shown, jim said it shows europe does not work. there is the way the street had to

at the moment, angela merkel is operating with an appeasement policy toward the erdowan regime and bribing the turks to take back refugees. this deal is not going to last forever with turkey. i think europe is playing a dangerous game with the turks at the moment. if turkey does enter the european union eventually, that would be a huge game changer within europe and you will see large-scale migration from turkey to points west in europe including the united kingdom. you also need to bear in mind that with the large refugee influx, the germans took in 1.2 million refugees last year. they took in 200,000 refugees in february-march alone this year. i would expect that more refugees will find their way -- migrants will find their way to germany eventually. within a number of years, the migrants or refugees will get german passports and that will give them the right to travel anywhere inside the european union including the united kingdom. then germany's problem becomes a british problem. you raise a good point about mass immigration and long-term consequences and these are big factors in shapi
